Hello experts,

I have the following flat file attached (Input Sheet).
I am trying to build a vba procedure that covers the following requirements:
1-Check if Output sheet if so delete and create a new blank
2-Transfer the various unique values in column H, J and AI
3-Consolidate the sum values for the various month from AJ to BV split by column AI

I attached dummy file with expected Output sheet.

I think that we can proceed steps by steps, such as copy unique values related to H & J.
For this we can use the following procedure: 

Sub CopyRangeUniqueValues(FromWSheet As String, FromRange As String, ToWSheet As String, ToRange As String)
'Sub treats first cell in FromRange as a header label, and will copy it to ToRange even if it is duplicated in the list
Dim celHome As Range, rgDest As Range, rgSource As Range
Dim n As Long
Set celHome = ActiveCell
Set rgDest = Worksheets(ToWSheet).Range(ToRange)
Range(rgDest, rgDest.End(xlDown)).ClearContents

With Worksheets(FromWSheet)
    n = .UsedRange.Row + .UsedRange.Rows.Count - 1
    Set rgSource = .Range(FromRange & n)
End With

rgDest.Worksheet.Activate
rgSource.AdvancedFilter Action:=xlFilterCopy, CopyToRange:=rgDest, Unique:=True
Application.GoTo celHome

Open in new window


Concerning the consolidated sum we can also go ahead with a formula reported in macro: 

Sub LoopFormula2(strwsName, strColflag, strCol As String, strColName As String, formula As String)

'Call LoopFormula2("ImportCC", "1", "D", "Test", "=clean(sheet1!G2*sheet1!I2)") 'example of formula
    Dim ws As Worksheet
    Set ws = Worksheets(strwsName)
    ws.Activate
     '==>Clear Destination Column
    Range(strCol & ":" & strCol).Clear
    UsedRows = ActiveSheet.UsedRange.Rows.count + ActiveSheet.UsedRange.Rows(1).Row - 1
    If strColflag = 1 Then
        Range(strCol & 1).Value = strColName
    End If
    '==>Clear Destination Column
    RightFormula = Replace(formula, "1048576", UsedRows)
    '==>ApplyFormula
    Range(Cells(2, strCol), Cells(UsedRows, strCol)).formula = RightFormula
    Range(Cells(2, strCol), Cells(UsedRows, strCol)).Value = Range(Cells(2, strCol), Cells(UsedRows, strCol)).Value
End Sub

Thank you in advance for your help.

That is really cool. This has applications for those with physical disabilities as well.

I may be a little weary of a machine, especially one that may be collecting my data, to be recording everything I think aloud. :)

Yeah Craig, the ability for a device like this to aid people with disabilities is really one of the best applications I could imagine. At the same time, you could swing the complete opposite direction and end up with Skynet.

Hi
My Python chess project new approach is tripping up.
I think it might be to do with Thread entanglement.
My engine instantiates a white and a black player, which are each abc's for their AI, random movers for now.

Then I start a game_loop() to handle the game play.

Does Thread "entanglement" ever happen? I cant see any reason for my Threads to unravel
I suspect this, because I have a thread counting the seconds going by on the console
( will help with clock)
But, when I instantiate my board window, the board window appears, but the counting thread disappears. (take away the # comment in ChessEngine.py to reinstate the board creation
Have they become entangled?

My
ChessEngine.py has the call to init the board commented out, so you can see the seconds being counted out.
as soon as the # is taken away and the board instantiates, the first Thread ceases to count.
It only counts the seconds when there is no board

Are Python Threads delicate and tough to combine?
Something in the board class is locking it all up
Code attached
What could it be?

Thanks

Google’s “duplex” AI system for voice recognition and natural language responses is pretty amazing. The phone call snippets here don’t even sound like you’re talking to a bot:

Gartner predicts that by 2020, the average person will have more conversations with bots than with their spouse:

Hopefully this is more due to AI being used in common interfaces, and not because we start migrating towards making "friends" with our mobile devices.

I want to buy a speaker to connect it to the Arduino and play some music. I've done some research and noticed that all speakers operate at least 2 W.

The Arduino offers a 5V voltage differential and 0.25 milliAmperes so machines work between 1,5*10^-4 W.

Which speakers do I have to use?

Well my dad has recently bought our Arduino. Yesterday I was exploring the environment I found how to save , open and open the serial monitor.

My problem is that every time I try to upload a project, an exception occurs "programmer didn't respond the command"
I've tried this for about 100-150 times but it doesn't get any better. What should I do?

Bots will shape on-demand services of tomorrow

AI chatbots for small and mid-size enterprises that require a team of 4–6 team members. Projects like that take at least 2–3 months to implement and a chatbot always just a part of a bigger system, with custom dashboards, webviews, etc. https://goo.gl/g71BSw

I have a quick wifi connection. I do not want to plug into the router.

Sometimes google hangouts / google voice has low call quality.
instead of hearing a word. I can not understand one word in every sentence because there is a robot noise

I looked up downloading hangouts for windows 10 but can not find

Is there any way to increase call quality or is that server side (google)?

AI and machine learning humanize app development and marketing

Machine learning is being used as a marketing tool as it can access user data and gather additional insights on the users’ behavior and engagement preferences.
While artificial intelligence (AI) has been around for a while, scientists have recently made massive breakthroughs in the field of machine learning, a subfield of AI, as noted by NPR.

Hi

I finished our colossal collaboration of a network game with a central server, a while ago. I will convert it to python now that I'm shifting to it as well. Is that unadvisable - python might not be optimal for a game server?

I know that MIT had an RTS AI coding contest, before.
There's also ORTS, open rts
There seem to be many similar links on Google.
The MIT contest was geared to a confusing, un-watchable mess of a game, in my opinion.

Do these types of contests have any traction? now? Any of them non-college?
I have many ideas, some non 3D war.
Thanks

I'm interested in using Visual Studio in the field of BIG data and artificial intelligence.

At the moment the latest version of Visual Studio is 2017.
When is the next version due out?
What spec machine is needed for it to run smoothly in terms of processor, RAM and diskspace (and anything else that is relevant).
I found that with the Express edition, I could not use the Streamwriter.  Is this expected?

I want to create a program in Prolog that reads in a user input and finds a synonym for the words that the enter.

For example, if they entered 
?- : [i,like,walking]

Open in new window

, the program would change it to 
[i,love,walking].

Open in new window


I want to do this with an input predicate like...

input:-
    read(X),
    synonym(X),
    output(X).

synonym(likes,[loves,adores]).

output(X):-
    write(X).

Open in new window


I know what I want to do, but I don't know how I would go about doing it.
Any help would be much appreciated.

The Robotic Process Automation are fast approaching RPA , any idea how our MS access developed application will be affected ? The RPA will replace many of the jobs that are currently done by human through automation , does it mean that our applications will be redundant if they cannot link with robots?

Subject of the week | Tell us about a technology you'd like to learn.
I'm fascinated by developments in Machine Learning and want to, heh, learn more about it. Not so much because I want to create Machine Learning systems myself—I have very little interest in the math involved—but so I can know how to leverage the sort of things that are being built. I easily envision the future of most work being about managing various bots and knowing how to apply them to higher level problem solving.

To get started on that path, I'm currently teaching myself Python (via several books on the subject) and would then transition into the use of it to dig deeper into the Machine Learning libraries. (And if I have to, even some refresher on the math... I did pass the AP calculus test, but that was 20 years ago!)

Any of you out there with more knowledge in these areas have some advice on this?

How should you communicate with robots?

Also with access control don't worry about it right guys?
